Tamas Dabóczi

He is a professor at the Department of Artificial Intelligence and Systems Design (MIT) of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics (VIK) of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics (BME); he was the head of the department for 9 years (2016-2024). He later became the head of the Signal Processing research group.
He obtained his PhD degree (MTA) in 1994; he habilitated (BME-VIK) in 2013; in 2019 he received his MTA doctoral degree and was appointed as a university professor.
His main research areas are digital signal processing, inverse filtering, and model-based artificial intelligence, as well as their application in embedded systems.

He was an invited visiting researcher at the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), Gaithersburg, MD, for 11 months, where he developed distortion compensation for ultrafast sampling oscilloscopes using inverse filtering methods. He worked on automotive engine diagnostics at the Karlsruhe University of Technology (Universität Karlsruhe, Institut für Industrielle Informationstechnik). He worked at the High Voltage Laboratory of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule, Zürich, ETH) for 3 months: he developed an inverse filtering method for non-destructive testing of insulators to create a cost-effective measurement system.

Chair of the Scientific Committee on Automation and Computer Science of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (from 2023); non-academic representative of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (from 2025).

Awards and honors: "Best Youth OTKA Application" title as supervisor (National Scientific Research Fund Programs, 1994); Zoltán Magyary Postdoctoral Fellowship (NKFIH - National Research, Development and Innovation Office, 1995); János Bolyai Research Fellowship (MTA, 2009-2012, 1998-2001); György Békésy Postdoctoral Fellowship (Ministry of National Resources, 2002); Siemens Professorship (Siemens, 2002); Outstanding Young Engineer Award (IEEE I&M Society - Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Instrumentation & Measurement Society, 2006); Knight's Cross of the Hungarian Order of Merit (State of Hungary, 2022).
